I like to do all my filtering/processing directly on the mail server.  I
read email (using IMAP) via Evolution both at home and at work.  It's
too much of a pain to keep the local filters updated in 2 locations,
plus with the large volume of email I get, it's much faster to not make
Evolution process the messages.

However, I do know a number of other people who use your approach quite
well.
